Chapter 512

Run! We must run right now!

Just as he was about to teleport away, the Psychic Power attacking him suddenly disappeared, causing him to stop instinctively.

Disappeared?

The Galactus waited a moment, and only after confirming that the sudden appearance of this Psychic Power had just vanished did it breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't know what was going on with this inexplicable attack, as long as Su Quan didn't catch up with him or get entangled with him, there was still a chance.

However... the uneasy Galactus decided to change locations and, with a whoosh, teleported hundreds of millions of light-years away.

Su Quan was unaware that the Galactus had become so easily frightened. After collecting the rewards once, he remotely sent Susan and Frankie Raye into his Pocket Space to collect Silver Surfers, and then drove to see Professor Curt Connors.

Professor Curt Connors has officially resigned from Empire State University, so there are two main things to discuss at this meeting.

First: Take him to see his future workplace and make a list of the equipment he needs.

Second: After returning, go see Doctor Otto Octavius.

At the gate of Empire State University, Su Quan saw Professor Curt Connors carrying a box in his arms. He looked confident and full of vigor.

"Professor Curt Connors." Su Quan rolled down the car window and waved to him.

Professor Curt Connors strode into the car, greeting him with a smile, "Mr. Su Quan."

As Su Quan drove, he explained, "My research team is working on a wide variety of projects. In addition to the Extremis Virus and Regeneration Cradle projects, there are also projects on Mutant Genes, Reversal Toxin, Zombie Virus, and more."

"These projects are not in the same lab. I'll take you to the labs for the Extremis Virus and Regeneration Cradle projects first. You can compare them with your research projects and cross-reference them. It might be helpful and inspiring."

Professor Curt Connors smiled and nodded, "I can't wait."

The moment he finished speaking, the car suddenly drove into an empty alley.

Then, with a whooshing sound, a huge blue five-pointed star-shaped Teleportation Portal appeared out of thin air in the alley, in front of the car.

"What... what is that?" Professor Curt Connors exclaimed in surprise, his voice trembling as he pointed to the Teleportation Portal ahead.

Su Quan smiled without saying a word, stepped on the gas, and drove straight in.

"Squeak—"

The car was parked in a spacious hall.

The Marvel Mainstream Universe.

Madripoor, Nato Tong Headquarters Building.

"We've arrived at the lab, get off the bus."

Su Quan smiled and said something to the still-shaken Professor Curt Connors before getting out of the car.

Professor Curt Connors shakily got out of the car, looking at the unfamiliar and strange surroundings, opening his mouth several times as if to speak but then stopping himself.

At first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong with the hall; the layout and decoration are normal and have nothing to do with anything eerie.

But don't forget, they were in an alley, then passed through a huge five-pointed star shape, and arrived at the hall.

This kind of transition that seems to take you through time and space is what makes it so strange!

"Helen Cho." Su Quan waved to Helen Cho, who happened to be passing by, and introduced her with a smile when she came over, "This is Doctor Helen Cho, the head of the Regeneration Cradle."

"This is Curt Connors, a biology professor who has been researching limb regeneration technology."

"Hello, Professor Curt Connors."

"Hello, Doctor Helen Cho."

The two greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries.

Su Quan said with a smile, "Professor Curt Connors will be joining our research team to study limb regeneration projects. Why don't you take him to your and Maya Hansen's lab and introduce him to the situation here?"

"Good."

Helen Cho nodded and invited Professor Curt Connors, "Come with me."

Professor Curt Connors looked at Su Quan with a hint of hesitation.

Su Quan said with a smile, "Come find me after you've finished your tour, and I'll answer your questions."

Professor Curt Connors could only suppress his doubts and follow Helen Cho.

Su Quan wasn't idle either. He took out a portion of the billions of resources he had obtained from the Fantastic Four World from his personal space and had them moved into storage.

An hour later, Professor Curt Connors returned, his face filled with amazement...

"Ask anything you want to ask."

Su Quan was somewhat bewildered by Professor Curt Connors's straightforwardness. A person who can become a professor is definitely not a fool. After an hour of roundabout talk and unguarded introduction, Su Quan had already guessed a lot of the details.

"This... is not my original world, is it?" Professor Curt Connors asked tentatively.

Su Quan shook his head and said, "No! You should know about the Parallel Universe and Multiverse theory, right? This is Universe 616 of the Multiverse."

(The designation of Universe 616 comes from the setting in Doctor Strange 2, not the Universe 616 in the comics.)

Professor Curt Connors took a deep breath and asked again, "Will I be working here from now on?"

"This is a good fit for your project," Su Quan said.

Professor Curt Connors nodded. The Extremis Virus and Regeneration Cradle projects here were indeed very suitable for his research on limb regeneration, since the research directions of the several projects were quite similar.

"I just asked Doctor Helen Cho and Doctor Maya Hansen. This world... has the equipment I need, and it's even more advanced."

"This is the list."

Su Quan took it without even looking at it and casually handed it to the Black Widow who was serving him. "Tell Dotty to arrange a laboratory for Professor Curt Connors, and then buy everything on it as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Black Widow accepted it.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Su Quan asked Professor Curt Connors.

Professor Curt Connors shook his head. "I have many questions about this New World, but none of them are important. I can learn about them slowly later."

"Shall we go back?"

"Good."

Su Quan and Professor Curt Connors returned to the car, and the pentagram Teleportation Portal appeared.

A few seconds later, the car rushed in, and the Teleportation Portal disappeared.

PS: To explain, I only updated once yesterday because I had to go downstairs for a nucleic acid test at around 5 a. m. this morning. It's a city-wide nucleic acid test, so I had to go to bed early. Otherwise, I wouldn't have the energy to write today.

Also, although it cannot be described directly, the female characters collected are definitely 'complete'.

Finally, some comments in the comment section were censored. I didn't delete them; even my own replies were deleted. It must have been due to review by moderators.

In a coffee shop across from Columbia University, Su Quan sat by the window, sipping his coffee and watching a group of students gather at the school gate.

In the crowd, a somewhat dim-witted boy was secretly looking around, seemingly trying to find someone, when a handsome young man next to him suddenly greeted him, causing him to hurriedly and hastily avert his gaze.

These two are Peter Parker and Harry Osborn.

"I heard that Columbia University's science center is having a spider exhibition. If you're interested, we can go check it out together after it's over."

Professor Curt Connors, who was standing next to Su Quan, made a suggestion with a smile.

They were waiting for Doctor Otto Octavius, whom they had arranged to meet at this coffee shop.

Su Quan shook his head and joked, "Don't you think it's a bit perverted for two grown men to visit a spider exhibition?"

Professor Curt Connors chuckled wryly, and just then Doctor Otto Octavius entered the coffee shop, so the topic was dropped.

Doctor Otto Octavius walked over, greeted his friend first, and then looked at Su Quan.

Professor Curt Connors, acting as the In-Betweener, enthusiastically introduced the two to each other.

One of these two men was his financial backer, and the other was a close friend whom he admired and respected. Regardless of their positions, he hoped that this meeting would have a mutually satisfactory outcome.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Doctor Otto Octavius was not good at or rather disliked socializing, got straight to the point.

Before coming, he had already learned about the conditions offered by the other party from his friend. To be honest, he was very tempted. If the other party could deliver on the conditions and it wasn't just empty promises, he would agree without hesitation.

"I have only one question: if I agree to join your research team, when will the funding for the nuclear energy project be available? If there is no progress after a period of time, will there be any follow-up funding? What is the maximum total investment for this project?"

A question?

These are three questions.

Su Quan smiled and answered just as directly, "Soon, yes, there's no limit."

In one sentence, he answered all his questions concisely and efficiently.

Doctor Otto Octavius's nuclear energy project is very expensive because the core material of the project is a very, very, very rare element, a metal.

After taking over the Osborn Industries, Harry Osborn devoted all his efforts to supporting his experiments, hoping to achieve great success. However, the experiments failed and he almost ruined his reputation.

This experiment is too expensive. If it fails, it could cause serious damage or even bankruptcy. So far, no one has dared to invest in this project, even though it has a promising future.

Su Quan is the only investor who dares to say he provides unlimited funding!

Su Quan was rich and unafraid of experimental failure.

To put it simply, if the project succeeds, nuclear energy will be like the sun, providing energy inexhaustibly.
